CakePHP Image Helper

The main goal of this plugin is to give you the ability to resize an image without headache.

Requirements

• CakePHP 2.x
• PHP Gd library
• Keyboad + Mouse

Installation

Load the plugin using bootstrap.php

CakePlugin::load('Image'); 

Usage

This plugin is a dead simple helper with only one method

$this->Image->resize('/img/avatar/1.png', 40, 40)
// Will generate a resized image /img/avatar/1_40x40.png (transparency is kept)
// will output 

<img src="/img/avatar/1_40x40.png" width="40" height="40"/>

The 4th parameter is the same than the 2nd parameter of HtmlHelper::image()

If you only want to get the "generated" image path

$this->Image->resizedUrl('/img/avatar/1.png', 40, 40);
